Well one would be hard-pressed to argue with that logic.  Santorum, always the politically-incorrect one dares to name the elephant in the room, and expresses exactly why sharia and the constitution are not compatibile.  If we had more like him serving right now imagine what the King hearing would have been like.

Rick Santorum: Sharia 'is evil'

DURHAM, N.H. — Rick Santorum on Friday asserted that Sharia law has no place in America.

“Jihadism is evil and we need to say what it is,” he said at the Strafford County Lincoln-Reagan dinner, remarks that show how the former Pennsylvania senator continues to establish himself as the candidate most-aligned with the Republican Party’s conservative base.

“We need to define it and say what it is. And it is evil. Sharia law is incompatible with American jurisprudence and our Constitution.”

Santorum, invoking New York Rep. Peter King’s hearing this week on the alleged radicalization of American Muslims, said that the “vast majority” of Muslims don’t want to it either.

“They left because of Sharia law,” he said, referring to why he believes Muslim immigrants left their home countries to come to the United States.

It is hard to tell why Muslims come to America but I am sure not all do it because they want to escape sharia.  Some do it precisely because they want to install sharia in the US.  Telling the difference between the two, that seems to be the hard part.

Santorum added, “Sharia law is not just a religious code. It is also a governmental code. It happens to be both religious in nature an origin, but it is a civil code. And it is incompatible with the civil code of the United States.”
